Continuing Studies

Before I forget...I've started a year of study (while teaching!  Groan  LOL).  As if teaching wasn't already challenging enough, I've now started part time study via the internet with Waikato and at the end of 2011, I was thinking "Yep, online study should be pretty 'sweet'"...NOT!".   I'm new to online study.  I'm new to online 'moodle'.  I'm new to the whole online learning/study thing...BUT...I'm really enjoying the challenge.  I'm taking a good look at myself as a teacher and the role I play as 'educating our young minds'.  So far, as honest as I am, I'm not as good as thought!  But that's ok because I know I'm 'pretty OK' and for my next level, I will be...WAY BETTER! 

Ever Thought of a Bucket List?

Totally random, but have you?
I wasn't until up til a few minutes ago and thought, "well, no I haven't!".   No one knows how long they have here but why not think of a few possibilities...maybe 10!  :)  I saw the movie, wasn't it inspiring!?!  I believe so.  Sooo, guess what I'm thinking of at the moment (I hope it lasts more than that!).

What will your Bucket List be comprised of?

The Sunscreen Song

While looking for a 'sunscreen song', I found this!  I had heard this a while ago and of course, once hearing again...had to listen to the whole thing!  I bet you will remember this one!  :)

 

An Old Start for a New/Old School!

A new start for 2012!  An old school with a new name, a new/old school with old and new students, a new start with old and new staff!  I bet you are thinking...."huh?!?".  Our school has joined two other schools as part of a merge and of course we have a new/old name!  We were 'Putauaki Full Primary School' and now we are 'Putauaki Continuing School'! Ahhhh, the creativity in a name!   We have new and old students returning as well as new and old staff!  WOW!   What a beginning to what will be an exciting and busy year...again! :) 

L@S 2012

Well another year at L@S and I have thoroughly enjoyed myself. Loved the keynote speakers, my breakout sessions and especially the company and reflective feedback from my colleagues who are also here. What an awesome opportunity I have been given to mix with like minded people....ahhh, the world is good!

Oh no!

Just a quick thought...my blog is fast becoming 'music' orientated!  Oh well, just sharing the love!  :)

WOW!

OK, I've been at YouTube...again!  Here's another clip and done in a similar style to...'Which style of video capture?'...lol...here is a clue...go back to recent posts :)

Hope your Christmas day was a good one!
